I use a bit of coarse corn meal sprinkled on my pizza pan to prevent sticking!

| I use the whole wheat pitas to make pizzas. I first tried them about a month ago when a WW friend told me about them. The pita bread is only 2 WW points. They are so good that now I think I am actually spoiled on them because the thought of take out pizza is not nearly as appealing.

I finally got around to trying the pizzas made with whole wheat pitas. Mmmmmm:yumm:
I used tomato sauce and added some oregano flakes to it and spread on top of the opened pita. I laid these on a cookie sheet covered with non-stick aluminum foil for easy clean-up. Then put lots of veggies on top and topped it all with mozzarella flavored veggie shreds (instead of regular animal protein cheese). I had thought of picking up a Pizza Hut "Fit n Delicious" pizza tonight after work, but I think I like the homemade ones better. And they are certainly less calories and fat.

| I'm not sure how they make it, but papa murphys came out with those deLite pizzas, and the most noticeable thing about them is their super thin crust, which cuts quite a few calories.

We used to get the Papa Murphy's DeLite pizzas most Friday nights. I hated to cook after a long week at work. Then one day, after "talking" to someone on this forum about making good choices, I compared the Papa Murphy's DeLite to the Pizza Hut "Fit 'n Delicious" and found that the Papa Murphy's has a lot more fat than the Pizza Hut version. I compared strictly veggie versions of each-no meat. Being the crust is so thin, and the cheese is less, it seems my hubby and I can each easily eat 1/2 a pizza. So, I compared 1/2 of a large pizza for each:
Pizza Hut large (14") considers 1/12 of a pizza for each slice, Papa Murphy's considers 1/10 of a pizza for each slice.
1/2 Papa Murphy's Large Veggie DeLite: 750 cal. 40 g. protein 40 g. fat 2.5 g. fiber
1/2 Pizza Hut 14" (green pepper, red onion & tomato) 840 calories 36 g. protein 21g. fat 12 g. fiber
Having ordered and eaten each....I'd say they both satisfied my craving for pizza. I think Pizza Hut's has a lot less cheese than Papa Murphy's, which is probably why it also has a lot less fat.
So, if we get a craving for pizza more than we should eat it, I make the whole wheat pita, homemade variety:D

| Well that's no good! The closest Pizza Hut is about 50 miles away. I'll just have to make pita pizza!
